Default Using Empty Fuse Block Sockets

I've added a few electrical items to my 2012 Road King so there are some 'loose' fuse holders under the seat and pigtails on my battery terminals. Since I have a Road King, there are a bunch of empty fuse holders in the fuse block for things that can be found on Ultras and other models.


Has anyone successfully used those extra fuse connections to power accessories, etc? I realize the amperage considerations etc, but is it physically possible to hook wires to them or is some OEM magic required?


Thanks in advance

There is one or two of them with power on one side.
The others you will have to add the connector for power.

On the outgoing side, you will have to add the connectors.
They snap right into the back of the fuse panel, very simple.
Those connectors usually come with any electrical accessory.

Cool, thanks. I can check with the dealer, but do you know if the connectors come separately? P/N? My accessories aren't from Harley so they didn't have them.
